5.2 Feeder Section
The feeding mechanism consists mainly of the assembly for the lowering and lifting of the feeding table. In addition, there are the feeding table, the feeding head, fixed face stops, first gate, side stackers, feeding roller, and the second gate.
The feeder serves the purpose of stacking paper sheets, and is operated by roller chains guided by two leading spindles. The sheets are taken from the table and inserted into the machine by means of the feeding head. During lamination the paper is removed from the pile.
The feeding head feeler controls the height of the pile and the lifting of the table. The feed table is lifted automatically as the paper is removed. One step of lift equals 2 to 3 mm, independently of the amount of paper. The table lift is either automatically controlled by the feeding head feeler, or manually by means of push buttons on the control panel.
